All I want, Blizzard.All I truly want for this skill.Is a minor glyph.Glyph of the Dragon.That will turn the graphic of this spell from a kick into an uppercut.Call it Rising Sun Fist if you need to.Just give me the Shoryuken.

It seems that the +dmg buff spreads to nearby enemies.

Upon a successful cast, your target receives:

(1) Rising Sun Kick with "Damage taken from abilities dealt by the Monk increased by 10%" being the wording for my in game tooltip.

and

(2) all mobs within 8 yards, including your target, will receive the Mortal Wounds debuff with the wording "healing effects received reduced by 25%".

My point, above, is that the in game tooltips on the debuffs do differ from the RSK tooltips shown on this page and in game with the actual damage debuff being somewhat disappointing.

This would explain why RSK as a damage dealer is a non-existent priority in any good rotation - it exists purely for maintaining debuff uptime. The 1.5s GCD penalty ain't pretty .

Note also: The tooltip on this page for RSK lists the skill as having a recharge. This is not true. It has a normal "cooldown". It is not a special recharge ability like Hand of Gul'dan or Savage Defense or even Roll.
